Weston 8th mo. 5th 1806
Dear Grandmother
I have taken this opportunity to inform thee that we are well and have had a pleasant time of it since we left you. I should like to hear from you for we have not had a letter since we have been back. I would wish to know if anything is the matter as Henry has written several times I beleive. We have had apples handed out several times and once we had 5 a-piece and I expect we shall have the liberty of the peach orchard when the peaches are ripe. I would like to know if Arthur and Henry intend to go out to sea again and if they do where they will go to. Thou must write to us as soon as thou canst either third fifth or seventh days will do. Please to remember me to all your an our families.
From thy loveing grandson.
Francis Cope.
